For me it took a long time for the seat to fit me know it is comfortable and I am glad I didn't change it! I don't have long legs and I like the forward placement! Mids are nice if you have to stand up! You could put passenger pegs on so you can put your feet back on the hwy! This works OK for longer rides to get a different sitting position.

Got mine off of eBay for $100 (free shipping). I really like mid-controls better but that is just me. Note my signature picture with the mids. They came off a 2014 Nightster that a guy had the dealership put forwards on. The mids were brand new.

That was my issue when I first tried the 48 - sliding off the seat on acceleration. I also needed to be more forward, at 5'2" I felt I was stretching too much with the fowards. I put the HD super reduced reach solo seat on that moves you up 3" - now I find the forwards perfect. The 3" move up really made a difference.
